What is an appropriate treatment for ear canker in rabbits?

Ear canker in rabbits, often caused by an infestation of ear mites or other parasitic infections, typically requires a treatment that targets the underlying condition, such as the buildup of debris and the irritation in the ear canal. Mineral oil serves as an effective remedy for ear canker because it can help to soften any waxy build-up and debris, making it easier for the vet to clean the ear and providing relief from irritation. In addition, using mineral oil can create a less inhospitable environment for mites and other parasites that may be contributing to the discomfort.

While other treatments may target different aspects of the problem or serve purposes in other conditions, mineral oil specifically aids in the symptomatic relief of ear canker by alleviating discomfort, promoting cleanliness, and supporting ear health during the treatment process.
